164831 divided by 78 
We want to divide 164831 by 78.

On to step 1:
The number 78 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 16 / 78

Step 2:
78 can be fit into 16 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 16, we get 16.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 164 / 78

On to step 3:
78 can be fit into 164 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 156 from 164 leaves us with 8.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 88 / 78

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 88 by 78, we get 1 and a remainder of 10.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 78 from 88.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 10 and continue with: 103 / 78

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 103 by 78, we get 1 and a remainder of 25.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 211.0
If we take 78 away from 103, we end up with 25.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 25 and repeat the process: 251 / 78

On to step 6:
78 goes into 251 3 times with a remainder of 17.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2113.0
Subtract 234 from 251 to get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
170 divided by 78 is 2 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2113.2
Deduct 156 from 170 and we're left with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 8:
78 goes into 140 1 times with a remainder of 62.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2113.21
Subtract 78 from 140 to get 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 620 by 78, we get 7 with a remainder of 74.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2113.217
Deduct 546 from 620 and we're left with 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
78 goes into 740 9 times with a remainder of 38.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2113.2179
If we subtract 702 from 740, we get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 380 by 78, we get 4 with a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2113.21794
If we subtract 312 from 380, we get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
78 can be fit into 680 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2113.217948
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 624 from 680.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
78 can be fit into 560 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2113.2179487
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 546 from 560.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
140 divided by 78 is 1 with a remainder of 62.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2113.21794871
Subtracting 78 from 140 leaves us with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 2113.21794871 and a remainder of 6.2e-08.
